Snowdrops 6in at 50pc

Would you believe it? National Scrapbooking Day is just around the corner – again!

Yes, it’s hard to believe another year has gone so quickly. But the snowdrops have been and gone, too, daffodils are blooming everywhere and buds are thickening on the magnolia and azalea bushes, so it must be spring again.

And along with Spring comes hope and a lightening of the spirit after the dark, cold and barrenness of winter.

Christmas Scrapbooking Page

by Genie on January 19, 2008

in Seasonal Scrapbooking

This Christmas scrapbooking page, whose title is ‘All on a Christmas Holiday’, has 11 photographs and just a couple of embellishments.

Multiple photo layouts are really useful for Christmas pages as we usually take a lot of photos.

Add a second page to make this into a two-page spread and you could have at least 22 photographs in one layout. That’s not bad going!

Which shows greater love? An elegant Valentine card you spent a fortune on at the store, or a homemade card that took a few minutes at the kitchen table.

Today’s homemade cards look anything but home made with so many wonderful scrapbooking products to choose from.

DIY Santa 012We’re all looking for Christmas / Holiday scrapbooking ideas at this time of year. Well maybe not quite yet – got to buy the presents and get them wrapped first. But we’ll be looking for ideas even if we don’t have time to make them just now.

With that thought in mind it’s good to make time to plan the photos you might want to take. And isn’t this a cutie? I saw this photo by Gandalf81 at stock.xchng. The title came to mind as soon as I saw it.
